1) Cut Reggie’s minutes or bench him altogether in favor of either McGruder/Sham/Mann. The starting unit does not need another scorer but a glue guy in the point guard position to spot up on kick outs and keep the ball moving. Reggie stagnates an already isolation-heavy offense.

2) Give Zu a longer leash because of his recent bubble-play and give him more minutes instead of risking a game to ramp up Trez despite the matchup struggles. If anything, Trez should play the least amount of center minute at this point because Zu and JaMych have playing so well in the bubble. I personally think Trez would be a better matchup against Gobert next round if the Jazz move on. But I see Trez being a liability going against Jokic next round against the Nuggets because Jokic is a much better version of KP.

I’d be curious to see what a full 5-out lineup could do against the Mavs and see how they would do with Boban out there.

Wish one of the assistants was a rotation specialist whom Doc could rely upon to make those tweaks because Doc is just inept with them

“ An interesting wrinkle the Clippers used late in the game was Morris at center, something they had used sparingly over the season. According to Cleaning The Glass, Morris previously had only played 16 possessions at the five with the Clippers.”

This wasn’t Dallas’ best punch

Let’s get some perspective here – it’s one game where Reggie played 16 min. Sure, they were putrid, but he would have played half that if Bev were not in foul trouble. Reggie was brought in as the backup PG and was always penciled in at 8-10 mpg and I think deserves that in his very first playoff game for us. Far cry from sticking with Avery as a starter and the PP days. Doc also played Lou 31 min, which I’m sure is a few more than he would have liked. Lou was our most effective guard and sticking with him I think qualifies as an in-game adjustment. Let’s see how Doc adjusts next game before we start getting out the pitchforks.
